Description

Tender roasted cabbage wedges coated in a creamy garlic and herb sauce with sun-dried tomatoes for a rich, comforting dish.


Ingredients

For the Cabbage:

  • 1 head green cabbage, cut into wedges
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil

For the Sauce:

  • 3 tablespoons butter (or plant-based butter)
  • 1 medium red onion (or shallots), chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth (or vegetable broth)
  • 8 ounces full-fat cream cheese (or vegan cream cheese)
  • 1 cup heavy cream (or coconut cream)
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes (or fresh tomatoes)
  • 1 teaspoon dried herbs (oregano, thyme, rosemary)
  • 1 teaspoon salt (to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (or nutritional yeast)
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley or basil


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Place cabbage wedges on a baking sheet and drizzle with oil.
  2. Roast for 25–30 minutes until edges are golden and centers are tender.
  3. In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Cook onion until soft, then add garlic and cook until fragrant.
  4. Pour in broth and bring to a simmer. Add cream cheese and stir until smooth.
  5. Stir in heavy cream, sun-dried tomatoes, herbs, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Simmer for a few minutes.
  6. Add Parmesan cheese and stir until melted. Mix in fresh herbs.
  7. Place roasted cabbage into the sauce or spoon sauce over cabbage before serving.

Notes

  • Roast cabbage until edges are slightly crispy for the best texture.
  • Adjust spice level with more or less red pepper flakes.
  • Use coconut cream and vegan cheese for a dairy-free version.
